Grant Guidelines

Conference Funding

Funding is granted based on available funds and relevance to the Rockefeller Center's mission.

A student can only be funded once a year.

The Rockefeller Center cannot fund grants retroactively, conferences must take place after the working group meeting except for some conference applications that fall under the expedited voting rule. (See below)

The Rockefeller Center will reimburse the student for the cost of the conference registration fee only after the conference takes place and after completion of all reporting requirements.

Expedited Conference Funding Voting Rule

For students applying for funding to attend a conference.

If a student applies for funding for a conference that takes place before the next working group meeting is scheduled, applicants can request an expedited online voting.

Applicants must accept that there will be no discussion about their application, working group members will simply vote on the applications virtually.

Students must submit their applications at least five days before the conference starts.

If you would like to request an expedited vote and your application meets the above requirements, please complete an application for funding and send an email to The Mini-Grants Chair with your request.
